Both candidates for the Inter-
national Students' Association
presidency have. proposed possible
solutions for the organization's fi-
nancial instability.
M. A. Hyder Shah, Grad., from
Pakistan suggested an attempt be
made to get an appropriation of

The procuring of funds from
certain profit foundations in this
country for. the support of ISA
functions was proposed byGeorge
Haniotis, Grad., from Greece. The
ISA should try to get money from
these groups for social programs
and invitational speaker presen-
tations, he said.
He suggested that the ISA
should have more functions with
American students, and perhaps
these could be financed by the
fraternities and sororities if they
were willing. ISA would pay part
of the costs to the affiliated group
if it could afford to, he explained.
Shah's platform also includes
promotion of better coordination
between the ISA and various na-
tionality clubs. This would mean
coordinating all the various na-
tionality club projects under the
banner of the ISA, he said, and
thus would add support to many
of the club's functions.
Propose Committees
He proposed that two new ISA
committees be organized - one
to help international students find
part-time and summer jobs and
one to orient new foreign students
and help them find housing.
If elected, Shah plans to pro-
vide more and better social events,
improve contacts with American
students, support the mock United
Nations and International Week'
and promote better understand-1
ing through cultural programs.;
Haniotis said the ISA now has
all the elements for promoting
better understanding between in-,
ternational students and Ameri-
cans.
To Coordinate
Once more money is obtained,
for the group, he said, ISA will
truly function to coordinatethe
work of many of the students. The
ISA should also take over the op-
eration of the present American
brother plan, Hanoitis comment-
ed.
Organizational activities would
be strengthened by a new source
of funds, he said. "Many of the

Shah received four degrees
while in Pakistan and a fifth last
year from Texas Christian Uni-
versity where he was president of
the International Students' Club
there. He also served on the Texas
Inter-Collegiate Students' Associ-
ation Board of Governors and the
Texas Student Government Coun-
cil. He has been secretary for the
Pakistan Students' Association
here during this past year.
Sh h's running mate for vice-
president is Amilcar Gomez, '61E.
Barbara Ann Miller, '61, is run-
ning for the same position on Ha-
niotis' ticket.

Russia, in initiating the Berlin
crisis, has succeeded in threemain
objectives, Prof. Preston W. Slos-
son of the history department
said Thursday.
"First, Russia has made a
friendly gesture toward the Ger-
man people by offering to pull
out," he said.
"Secondly," he continued, "a
situation has been created in
which we would be forced, like it
or not, to recognize the German
Democratic Republic. (East Ger-
many.)"
Would Shift Offense
"Lastly, and most important, if
Russia puts the squeeze on West
Berlin, we would be forced to deal
with East Germany as the offend-

ing power, with Russia only in the
background," he said.
Lecturing on the implications of
the Berlin crisis at Van Tyne
House, South Quadrangle, Prof.
S 10sd o n commented that the
United States is firm in its deter-
mination to remain in West Ber-
lin even at the risk of war. "If
we accept the Russian squeeze
there, at that very important
point," he explained, "it would be
construed by Russia that we would
not make a stand anywhere."
Lists Three Proposals
Three proposals have been
made which may offer a solution
to this problem, he said. The first
of these suggests that West Berlin
be turned over to United Nations
jurisdiction.,
It is also foreseeable that agree-
ment on the whole German ques-
tion may eventually be reached,
he continued.
He said a probable recourse
would entail merely a thinning
out and cutting down of forces on
both sides.
Views Nuclear War
Prof. Slosson compared nuclear
war to a "burglar alarm, which
would, while it blows up the burg-
lar, at the same time blow up the
safe." He said that he thought a
nuclear war could not possibly
"destroy mankind" because, only
the large cities, which include

SECOND SEMESTER

about one fourth to one third of
the world's population, would
probably be hard hit.
It would, however, succeed "in
setting back our economy and
standards of living a couple of
centuries."
Speculating on Russia's future
as a world power, Prof. Slosson
argued that either the reign of
terror will be ended by some form
of internal conflict or "a sensible
dictator will turn up at last."
African ClUb
Plans Dinner
The annual banquet of the Af-
rican Union will be held tonight
6:30 p.m. in Lane Hall.
Featured will be Prof. James.
Christensen of Wayne State Uni-
versity, who will speak on "Prob-
lems and Future of Democracy in
Africa."
The dinner, open to the public,
will emphasize African food and
entertainment. Reservations have
been largely taken up.
The dinner will be used to cele-
brate at a late date, Africa Free-
dom Day, which was April 15.
The overall aim of the affair is
to show Africa to Americans.

Adcock Book
NotsRome
Rotes ne
Sir Frank Adcock discusses Ro-
man political development in his
book "Roman Political Ideas and
Practice," published by The ,Uni-
versity of Michigan Press.
Roman ,patricians uprooted the
monarchy in the fifth century
B.C., and they in turn were even-
tually overcome by the plebeian
class, Adcock writes. After the
plebeian struggle and victory for
a voice in government, Rome re-
mained a republican state for 500
years.
The conquests of the strongly
disciplined and courageous Roman
legions brought the state great
wealth which contributed to its
downfall with certain personali-
ties. The republic was succeeded
by dictatorships such as Caesar's
and Cicero's 'when individual;
power backed by military might
began to increase.
Sir Frank feels that similar con-
flicts between personal ambition
and dreams of peace are not diffi-
cult to recognize in the 20th cen-
tury.
-The author was formerly clas-
sical lecturer' and professor of an-
cient history at Cambridge Uni-
versity.
